Volcano and Earthquake Workshop

We were very lucky in Year 3 to have a visitor from One Day Creative who put on a workshop about Earthquakes and Volcano. There were games, drama and many performances to enable Year 3 to further enhance their knowledge on our current topic. The children thoroughly got into the spirit of the workshop and had a fantastic time!

Greek Immersion Day

To welcome the children back and hook them into our new topic, Great Gods and Mere Mortals, Year 3 had a Greek immersion day. As soon as the children arrived in the morning, we dressed them up as Ancient Greek citizens. We created leafy wreaths to wear and sang Greek themed songs. In the afternoon, we took the children into the hall and treated them to a culinary experience featuring a range of greek delicacies such as olives, feta cheese and tzatziki.

Stone Age Stewed Fruit

The process not only allowed the children to get stuck in practically but also informed their own writing of instructions following the making of the fruit stew.

Sponge, wood, sandpaper and carpet. Before beginning their investigation they made a series of predictions about which surfaces would create the most friction. Then the fun began ! Take a look at the pictures below:
